However, he didn't die from the food...

When McDonald's defended itself by saying its food was nutritious, Spurlock decided to test that claim. "I thought if it's that good for me I should eat it for breakfast lunch and dinner," he told ABC's "Good Morning America" show. When he began his McDonald's binge, he weighed 185 pounds. He ballooned to 210 pounds by the end. His cholesterol rose by 60 points.

He should have skipped the buns, and ate an extra burger instead of fries at each meal, and he'd practically be on the south beach diet...

As much as it is bad for you, I do not see this affecting someone in moderation. Through high school and much of college I often ate some sort of fast food for at least 2 and sometimes 3 meals daily. My weight was a steady healthy weight and my cholesterol was a stable and low 98. I think he could have gone and made a movie called "I ate girl scout cookies for 30 days" and it would have had the same end result. He was eating an astounding 5,000 calories a day, that is just irresponsible. I don't even think Bull could do that. By the way, has bull been making a movie about eating McDonald's? That does seem right up his alley. Too bad this dude beat him to it.

Speaking of food that kills you...

I made a quick and easy dinner that is one of my favorites of late. However, I think one of my ingredients must have gone bad b/c I actually got sick the next day (today).

In either case:
1 can tuna
1 tablespoon mayo
2-4 teaspoons minced garlic

Boil some angel hair pasta, throw your favorite veg on the side and it's normally pretty good. I'm thinking that using the bulk minced garlic I got a year ago was probably the culprit.

That's right ladies, Nate is a bachelor.

I'm not even sure what you spread this odd tuna salad on.
